Russia is a huge country that is double the size of Australia. The vast country is located in part on the European continent and on the Asian continent. Almost half of the country is covered in forests, only 14% are suitable for agricultural land due to the harsh climate. The climate ranges from steppe in the South to subarctic in Siberia and tundra in the polar North.
The best Russia Attractions
Moscow: Visit the Red Square, wander through the Kremlin fortress and admire the colourful St Basil's Cathedral. St Petersburg: This port city on the Baltic Sea is the second largest city in the country. It is home to the fabulous Hermitage museum and the Winterpalace, previously home of the Russian tzars and emperors.Experience the 'White Nights' which are for about two weeks from mid of June. Then the sun will not set in St Petersburg and there will be daylight for 24 hours!
Russian Food
The Russian main dishes contain: pork and beef, lamb, chicken, fish, potatoes and root vegetables as well as porridge and bread. Sour cream accompanies many dishes. Especially vegetable soups and stews play an important role in Russian cuisine. Russian food is full of flavour and the Russian cuisine is as diverse as the regions in the huge country.
Russian People
